Great applicaton. I haven't had any problems with it
Conboy is a note taking application.
It is designed to be easy to use - yet powerful. Conboy can read and write the Tomboy file format to be compatible with Tomboy on Linux, Mac and Windows.

I'd love this software but it has a critical bug that makes it unusable for me. :(
I wonder nobody else has mentioned or reported these, so am I the only one with these?
I have created bug reports out of these.
The contents of notes keeps randomly disappearing, only the title remains. https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8301
Several bullets from the end of the notes keeps randomly disappearing. https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8302
Hopefully these gets fixed. For the time being I must find another note application... :(
@David B: Are you rating the application or the maemo.org Downloads section? Meanwhile this might be interesting: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6187
Only gets 1 stars from me. From a user point of view when looking at this app here i should see more than what is shown above and below.
There should be basic details of what this is as detailed here:
http://conboy.garage.maemo.org/
If there are not proper application descriptions it will be harder to get users to use a store when they have to goto a different website just to find out what an application is.
Eventually people will get sick and not use it anyumore as it does not make sense

Like others, I too have tried several such utilities, and this is the one that stayed (I even translated it :-). My one wish is that it could someday sync with (or at least push to) Evernote...
My favorite way to take notes -- use it for work and travel. Fast, clean interface.
favorite note app. just a must have for me. thank you for this great application
Thanks for the nice feedback - I really like that :)
@Uwe: The upcoming 0.6.x version will provide synchronization with Ubuntu One which is also available for Tomboy. You can test it if you install conboy-unstable. Have a look here: http://zwong.de/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/conboy_sync.ogv http://zwong.de/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/conboy_sync.avi
I really like this application and I'm using it more and more as the only note taking application. It would be great to have the pssibillity to upload the content to a webdav folder to use it together with tomboy on my desktop.
Pure awesomeness. I actually use this one compared to the Notes application that is shipped with the device. Its brilliant formatting options and its speed make this a winner.
Great! Solid ! I use it to make notes while commuting. Yes , I also vote for 'Edit' in portrait mode.
Conboy is the place where I keep all my day-by-day notes like travel itineraries and meeting memos.
Looking forward to the version that can sync to Ubuntu One or Midgard!

I absolutely love conboy! The only thing still missing is synchronisation to a own server. Either webdav or ssh would be a great option. I need to keep my notes in sync with my desktop but I do not want to give my personal data to ubuntu or others... Many thanks for this great application! Stephan
